Anand Rathi Wealth Shares in Focus: Board to Finalise Bonus Issue

Anand Rathi Wealth shares are in the spotlight on Thursday, April 9, as the company’s board is scheduled to meet to announce its fourth-quarter results and consider a potential bonus share issue. The company had informed stock exchanges about this meeting on April 6.

Potential Second Bonus Issue in Two Years

If approved, this would mark the firm’s second bonus issuance within a span of two years. In March 2025, Anand Rathi Wealth had issued bonus shares in a 1:1 ratio, meaning shareholders received one additional share for every share held as of the record date.

Beyond bonus shares, the company has delivered steady returns to investors through dividends, distributing a cumulative ₹57 per equity share since January 2022. It also undertook a share buyback in June 2024, further enhancing shareholder value.
